Click on the dmg file to open the file and click ZCS.mpkg to open the Zimbra install package. The Apple installer opens and verifies that the server is ready to install the Zimbra Collaboration Suite. Click Continue.

Type ./zmsetup.pl. This starts the ZCS configuration. A temporary log file is created and the server port configurations are checked for conflicts. The installation process checks to see if Sendmail, Postfix, and MySQL software are running. If any of these applications are running, you are asked to disable them. Disabling MySQL is optional but highly recommended. Sendmail and Postfix must be disabled for the Zimbra Collaboration Suite to start correctly.

Type 4 to display the automatically generated LDAP admin password. You can change this password. Write down the LDAP password, the LDAP host name and the LDAP port. You must configure this information when you install the mailbox servers and MTA servers.

Type 3, Domain to create, to change the default domain name to the domain name, (example.com).

•

The passwords listed in the LDAP configuration menu are automatically generated. You need these passwords when configuring the MTA and the LDAP replica servers. Write them down. If you want to change the passwords for LDAP root, LDAP replication, LDAP Postfix, LDAP Amavis, and LDAP Nginx, enter the corresponding number 4 through 8 and change the passwords.

Type Y and press Enter to install the zimbra-logger (optional and only on one mailbox server), zimbra-store,and zimbra-spell (optional) packages. When zimbra-spell is installed, the zimbra-apache package also gets installed. In the following screen shot example, the packages to be installed are emphasized.

Type 4 and set the password for the administrator account. The password is case sensitive and must be a minimum of six characters. During the install process, the admin account is provisioned on the mailbox store server. You log on to the administration console with this password.

Important: If you are moving from a non-proxy environment (for example, single server to multi-server environment), additional steps are necessary for the mailbox server and proxy configuration. After you complete the proxy installation, reconfigure the mailbox server as described in the ZCS Administration Guide, Zimbra Proxy chapter.

The Bind password for Nginx ldap user is configured when the LDAP server was installed. This is set when the MTA connected to the LDAP server. This is not used unless the Kerberos5 authenticating mechanism is enabled. Note: Setting the password even though GSSAPI auth/proxy is not set up does not cause any issues.

The Bind password for Nginx ldap user is configured when the LDAP server was installed. This is set when the MTA connected to the LDAP server. This is not used unless the Kerberos5 authenticating mechanism is enabled. Note: Setting the password even though GSSAPI auth/proxy is not set up does not cause any issues.

ZCS ships a default zimbra user with a disabled password. ZCS requires access to this account via ssh public key authentication. On most operating systems this combination is okay, but if you have modified pam rules to disallow any ssh access to disabled accounts then you must define a password for the zimbra UNIX account. This will allow ssh key authentication for checking remote queues. See the Zimbra wiki article, Mail Queue Monitoring.

When Configuration complete - press return to exit is displayed, the installation is finished and the server has been started. Before going to the next server, you should verify that the server is running.

Once the Zimbra Collaboration Suite is installed, you can log on to the administration console and configure additional domains, create Classes of Service, and provision accounts. See the Zimbra Administrator’s Guide.

You can provision up to 500 accounts on once using the Bulk Account Wizard from the administration console. The wizard takes you through the steps to upload a .csv file with the account information and then provisions the user accounts. These accounts are configured with a user name, display name and password (optional). The accounts are automatically assigned the domain default COS.

Zimbra’s migration and import tools can be used to move users’ email messages, calendars, and contacts from their old email servers to their accounts on the Zimbra server. When the user’s files are imported, the folder hierarchy is maintained. These tools can be accessed from the administration console Download page and instruction guides are available from the Administration Console Help Desk.
